30 år efter den første udgivelse af It's Christmas time kommer den ud endnu en gang med nogen af nutidens store kunstnere. Bono, Adele, One Direction og Ed Sheeran er blandt de medvirkende. Denne gang går overskudet ved salget til Ebola ofrene, hvortil teksten også er tilpasset. Bob Gelddorf står for produktionen, og nummeret havde premiære ved X-faktor i England 16. november 2014. Videoen er ret barsk - billeder af de syge, og man hører vejrtrækning gennem de dragter, der bæres af behandlerne. De engelske myndigheder har lovet at friholde salget af nummeret for moms. |

Band Aid Thirty - It's Christmas time - lyrics
It’s Christmas time
and there’s no need to be afraid
At Christmas time we let in light
and banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world At Christmas time But say a prayer pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it’s hard but while you’re having fun
There’s a world outside your window and it’s a world of dread and fear
Where a kiss of love can kill you and there’s death in every tear
And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight we’re reaching out and touching you No peace and joy this Christmas in West Africa The only hope they’ll have is being alive Where to comfort is to fear Where to touch is to be scared How can they know it’s Christmas time at all Here’s to you Raise a glass to everyone And here’s to them And all their years to come Let them know it’s Christmas after all Feed the world - Let them know it’s Christmastime again Feel the world - Let them know it’s Christmastime again Heal the world - Let them know it’s Christmastime again |
